    1analysis For Curtain Wall Glass

    Uploaded by

    EIWAA
    The document provides design calculations for the internal glass of a curtain wall structure. It specifies design codes, material properties including allowable stresses for different glass types and sealants. Load cases including dead load and wind load are defined. Wind load calculations are referenced. The maximum glass panel size and structural layout are specified. Bending stress and deflection calculations are shown for a glass panel under wind loading to verify it meets allowable stress and deflection criteria. The required width of structural sealant is also calculated.
